We must have skipped a season

Formosan termites
are swarming throughout the New Orleans area on Thursday night (May
22), as a combination of meteorological conditions provided just the
right conditions for the winged, reproductive version of the insect to
leave their nests.

Hundreds of termites were flittering around light poles in the French
Quarter, and were reported flying at Zephyrs Field where an AAA
baseball game was underway.
